Recipes

Here are some traditional, simple Finnish recipes with a few added bonuses (we're not trying to claim burgers and pizza as Finnish, but maybe it is quite typical for Finns to make them from the scratch). We added Finnish translations of each ingredient in brackets to ease your shopping and placed estimated price for each dish in the beginning of the recipe. The aim is to post pictures of each dish as we get to test them all! :)

Please try the recipes (they really are so simple anyone can cook them) and let us know what you think! Feel free to add your own recipes too!
